Each pen is filled with red ink, symbolising the blood of each slain journalist.

In a dramatic twist, the pens were then all opened, dripping onto a bowl just below the chandelier.

By the end of the evening, the art piece's leaking aftermath turned into a highlight itself.

The project is part of the Shifting Contexts exhibition which explores the critical role of art in responding to a rapidly changing world.

Matthew earned a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in Digital Arts in 2017 and was an artist-resident at the Virginia Centre for the Creative Arts (VCCA). The exhibition is open from December 14th 2018 to January 20th 2019 at Spazzju Kreattiv, Saint James Cavilier, Valletta.
